Title: Central coast DXing
Post by: syfr on February 02, 2023, 0141 UTC
Got a chance to listen from a relatives house here in SB County.  Rig is a Belka DX hooked to a rain gutter downspout ... top drawer DXing!

0139 UTC and DW is in loud and clear,  and I was able to copy The Slider up the band a bit  with nice signals as well.

Will try again tomorrow from another location and will see what I can find

Congrats to the respective ops!

Listened today again, but at about 0200Z

The Slider was solid copy but weak.  The "slide" sure helps in finding the station.

DW was quite solid once again in the Goleta area.  In fact , I disconnected the mighty (not)  rain gutter antenna and placed the Belka DX on the sidewalk in the back yard and using only the 28" telescoping antenna could copy DW. 

Amazing signal from down south!
